Sumo wrestlers eat up to 7,000 calories a day and weigh 300 to 400 pounds or two to three times as much as the average adult. … CT scans reveal that sumo wrestlers don’t have much visceral fat at all. Instead, they store most of their fat right underneath the skin. That’s why scientists think sumo wrestlers are healthy.Mar 18, 2019
Why 400-pound Sumo wrestlers don’t suffer from obesity
Anorexia nervosa, commonly referred to as anorexia, is an eating disorder characterized by low body weight, a distortion of the perception of body image, and an obsessive fear of gaining weight. The disorder primarily affects adolescent females (aged 16-26) and is far less prevalent in males – only approximately 10% of those diagnosed with anorexia are male. Individuals with anorexia tend to control body weight through methods such as voluntary starvation, excessive exercise, or other weight control measures including the use of diet pills or diuretics.
There is no single test that can be used to diagnose anorexia, and it is often present in conjunction with other mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Physical exams, mental health assessments, blood tests, as well as standardized indexes like the body mass index (BMI) are typically used to diagnose anorexia nervosa.
As previously mentioned, the diagnosis of anorexia often requires multiple approaches, one of which is provided by the BMI Calculator. That being said, a BMI below 17.5 in adults is one of the common physical characteristics used to diagnose anorexia. There are also different tiers of anorexia based on BMI ranging from mild (<17.5), moderate (16-16.99), and severe (15-15.99), to extreme (<15). A BMI below 13.5 can lead to organ failure, while a BMI below 12 can be life threatening. Note however that BMI alone is not enough to make a diagnosis of anorexia and is solely a possible indicator.

BMI = 16.94 kg/m2
Your calculated BMI suggests a possibility of anorexia nervosa.
You will need to gain 1.5 kgs to reach a BMI of 17.5 kg/m2.
Healthy BMI range: 18.5 – 25 kg/m2
The result above is not a diagnosis
Low BMI or body weight is just one physical feature for anorexia. Not all low BMI or body weight is related to anorexia. More information about anorexia is available at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anorexia_nervosa.

Body Volume Index (BVI) measurement launched
A new obesity measurement for the 21st Century, which can help identify individuals at risk of illness such as heart disease, strokes and diabetes, has been officially launched this week. The Body Volume Index (BVI), designed by Select Research, uses a 3D white-light scanner to calculate risk factors associated with a person’s body shape and type, through analysis of weight and body fat distribution.
